On May 6 and 7, 2026 the Big Data & AI World will take place in Frankfurt as a central part of the Tech Show Frankfurt, bringing together professionals from data, artificial intelligence and IT. We at HICO Group AG are pleased to be part of the event and to present current projects and practical solutions.

Many AI projects fail not because of the models but because of the data foundation. In our talk, Benjamin Gnädig, VP Data & Cloud, and Maximilian Kuhn, AI Engineer Consultant, will show how common challenges (distributed data sources, inconsistent maintenance and lack of traceability) can be solved technically. The focus is on a lakehouse architecture as a shared foundation for data and AI. Using concrete architectural principles, we demonstrate how to break down data silos and build platforms suitable for both experiments and production use.



We will Address:

  • Building end-to-end data pipelines
  • Handling metadata and data lineage
  • Ensuring data quality in ongoing operations
  • Embedding governance into technical processes
  • Reusing features across different use cases


Our talk will take place on May 6 on the Data & AI Engineering Stage from 1:10 to 1:25 PM. Benjamin Gnädig and Maximilian Kuhn look forward to your attendance.


Live at the Booth: HICO VAULT

In addition to the talk, we will be at the accompanying trade show with our booth presenting HICO VAULT, our AI platform for easy entry into AI and for structured use of company knowledge. It links documents and data into validated insights, creates a growing knowledge base and supports informed decisions.

We look forward to being part of Big Data & AI World 2026 and to engaging conversations in Frankfurt.
